"If you are Black and gay in South Africa, then it really is all the same closet...inside is darkness and oppression. Outside is freedom." (Simon Tseko Nkoli) This documentary follows internationally renowned drag queen Odidi Odidiva from his formative years to the shaping of his drag persona in the shadow of South African apartheid.
